    The Last of Us

    Using religion tp indoctrinate people into becoming cannibals isn't that farfetched I suppose...sort of makes a bit more sense when trying to control a community that large vs. the game where it was just a bunch of cannibal raiders. Christian missionaries used to use the reverse of this when...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    Too bad I had no idea there would be a market for these strategy books one day. Back when I used to work at a game store, they eventually got marked down to a penny and we usually tossed them in the trash

    The Last of Us

    Funale 1st game, no. Back half of the 2nd game, they come across a crazy religious cult.

    Star Trek: Picard

    Only major thing that ties back to prior seasons is Picard = basically an android. But everything else is minor enough that you don't really need the background really.

    Star Trek: Picard

    Season 1 and Season 2 are pretty uneven. There are some cool/nice moments, but a lot of crap. Highlight of season 2 are the Q+Picard interactions, which unfortunately are fairly sparse. Season 3 thus far feels more like TNG/DS9 era Trek. Hopefully they can keep up the same quality levels...

    Fallout

    Video that consolidates some of the leaks/info known about the show. Quick summary: 1) Partial power armor shots, including one with a BoS logo. Looks like practical effect Power Armor will feature 2) Vertibird set 3) Vault sets (one interesting bit - a classroom with a NCR flag) 4) Red...

    Dungeons & Dragons (2022)

    The "problematic" things in that arguement strike me as dumb. It's basically D&D Fallout, yet Fallout doesn't seem to have much issue in including cannibals, slaves, and genocide. Real issue is they probably want to make sure D&D is nice and squeaky clean so they can more easily market to kids...

    It isn’t isolated to twitch thot types. ANY celebrity deals with this shit in different degrees. hell, they’ve even made movies with this sort of shit as the theme. It’s an anime film, but Perfect Blue was a good example of this. Obsessed fan stalking the main character constantly

    Star Trek: Picard

    I think so. Think about some of the odd things 1). Episode 1 mentions something wrong between him and Troi/his daughter and needing to stay away from them 2) Was very interested in the ashes left behind from the aliens Crusher vaporized 3) Some of his behaviors, like going hard on...

    Someone on Reddit pointed out this scene from a couple episodes ago. The subtle double take. Hmmm.....

    Star Trek: Discovery

    Yes, because the best way to get shows, games, and movies you like funded is to make sure they don't make money!

    Star Trek: Discovery

    Sort of, I guess. Taking them out of the TOS timeline was a good idea, but it still doesn’t really feel like “Star Trek” outside of brief scenes or bits

    Interesting…soft spoilers in Critical Drinkers review ended up being misdirection

    Vtubing is/was a good way to get into streaming and stay anonymous. ALL streamers with any decent audience, from titty streamers to dudes like Shroud are going to have stalkers and weirdos trying to track them down. Same shit happens with celebrities in general. Like I remember hearing some...

    Ironmouse was training to be an opera singer before the sickness fucked things up. Apparently she had massive lung infections and it messed up her ability to breath for a while. She occasionally will do her singing voice and she is pretty damn good. You can tell it isn’t faked either because...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Some of that carried over into MSQ. If you compare animation and facial expressions now vs in years past, it is night and day difference

    The Mandalorian

    Essentially they aren’t writing the character out, just not focusing on them at all. That is actually smart. If things change, they can bring back the character If not, it’s easy to explain why they aren’t around (they’re basically doing their own thing - which they kind of were at the end...

    Final Fantasy 16

    “Dumbing down” is a controversial topic. WoW had the same thing - recall the massive ability prune and homogenous class design. You have to keep in mind what drives that: maximizing player engagement In games where you have limited player counts for encounters, you have to avoid “niche...

    The Last of Us

    I can understand uncertainty about a 2nd season, but rushing the entire 1st game into season 1 I think will be a mistake. Especially if season 2 just picks up like the game. People are going to tune out like they did when Glenn got Negan'd

    Snuffy is a western one that switched to her normal voice and found it worked better for her character. It really comes down to streamer preferences in a lot of cases I think. The only ones I’ve watched more than once are Nyanners and Ironmouse. Nyanners doing a play through of the original...

    PTR patch notes are up - SO many changes. Big ones -Crit damage bonuses are now additive instead of multiplicative - HUGE nerf to crit damage -Medium and Heavy armor now have innate 10/20% freedom buff -Musket nerf is pretty bad right now - even moving your mouse fucks your bullet accuracy.

    The greatest singular motivator for humans to get shit done is when they have to and the consequences if they don't are they get screwed Hydroelectric is pretty old technology - 19th century. If they're using an older system (which is likely), then they can probably get by with more primitive...

    The Last of Us

    Right. Plus being only 20 years out, you would still have a lot of people with 1st hand experience working these sorts of things. It’s not like a Fallout situation where 150 years have gone by

    Star Trek: Picard

    One nitpick: it would take like half a second to run a medscan to confirm the parentage of Jack. The drawn out need for Beverly to confirm was sort of needless Nice to see Worf kick some ass

    The extra percentages matter in war and the artificial gear score limits for higher level mutations. But outside that, there isn’t a massive difference for regular play

    The short hair makes sense if you're wearing that helmet and suit all the time anyways. Would be much easier to put on.

    The Last of Us

    Couldn't they potentially create some non-petroleum based machine lubricants, or simple lubricants from crude oil? Even Ancient Rome/Greece had machine/axle lubricants that didn't involve petroleum As for the dam itself, it wouldn't have to be running for the past 20 years. If they closed...

    Considering lack of electricity for the past 20 years, the usefulness of lightbulbs would be virtually nothing to scavengers. The biggest risk would just be the lightbulbs not surviving due to their relative fragility

    Hunter gatherer also requires mobility. If animals aren’t where you are, you need to go to them. A permanent settlement needs a constant and reliable source of food to support the population and you can only really get that with farming and domesticated animals, although you can supplement...

    The Last of Us

    You clearly never paid attention to the first game then. The entire game is basically Joel trying to finally come to grips with the loss of Sara, because he just buried it rather than emotionally deal with it
